Radcon Formula #7® prevents chloride ingress at European port

When the wharf at the Port of Koper in Slovenia was expanded in 2006, part of the original concrete surface was left untreated, part was coated with a sealer and part with Radcon  #7® . By 2014 it was found that the Radcon treated areas were still completely undamaged whilst the other areas had deteriorated badly.

Marina, Trinidad

This marina was waterproofed with one of our competitor's products which failed after 3 years resulting in chloride ion attack.  Dover was asked to repair the both top and underside of the marina.  The slabs were sandblasted to remove any previous products, barnacles, etc.  All areas were then washed with fresh water and treated with Radcon #7®, providing watertight seal and steel reinforcement protection to date.
